System and method for measuring and improving the efficiency of social media campaigns

ABSTRACT

A system and method for measuring the efficiency of social media campaigns. The system collects searchable activity data of members of a social network and processes this data locally to extract interaction data happening on the profile page of the social media campaign on the social network. The interaction data is then weighed in accordance with its type. The system may also determine an effort score representing a monetary value of the profile page based on the volume of contribution by the owners of the social media campaign. The efficiency score may then be determined based on a relationship between the number of interactions, the weight associated with each interaction, and the effort score.

This application is Continuation from U.S. application Ser. No.13/545,079 which claims priority from U.S. Provisional Application No.61/578,470 filed on Jul. 10, 2012 which is incorporated herein byreference in its entirety.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present document describes a system and a method for measuring theefficiency of social media campaigns. The system collects searchableactivity data of members of a social network and processes this datalocally to extract interaction data happening on the profile page of thesocial media campaign on the social network. The interaction data isthen weighed in accordance with its type. The system may also determinean effort score representing a monetary value of the profile page basedon the volume of contribution by the owners of the social mediacampaign. The efficiency score may then be determined based on arelationship between the number of interactions, the weight associatedwith each interaction, and the effort score.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an exemplary system for measuring andimproving the efficiency of social media campaigns, in accordance withan embodiment. The system may be accessed remotely over a communicationnetwork by a plurality of clients. The measuring and improving of theefficiency of social media campaigns may be offered as a Software as aService (SaaS) in a cloud computing environment. An exemplary SaaSEnvironment is described hereinbelow.

As shown in FIG. 1, a system 200 collects activity data (statisticalprofile data that is publicly available) of members of one or moresocial media networks 202 over a communication network 204 such as theinternet, or any other type of wired and/or wireless communicationnetworks. Examples of social media networks include but are not limitedto: Facebook, LinkedIn, Google analytics and Google related networks,Twitter, Foursquare, MySpace etc.

The system collects (scraps) the data from the remote servers of thesocial networks 202, processes the data locally and then provides theresults to the user 208 over the communication network 204. In anembodiment, the user 208 has to open an account and create a userprofile with the system 200. The user may link their profile with thesystem 200 to one or more accounts at one or more social media network202.

The activity data may be obtained/updated in real time or regularly, forexample, every few hours, daily, or weekly. The data collected from thedifferent social networks 202 may be stored in a database 206 to beprocessed by an intelligence module 210. Using a proprietary algorithm,the intelligence module 210 processes the collected data to determine anindividual user engagement score for the user with each social medianetwork.

In a non-limiting example of implementation, the algorithm causes thesystem 200 to count interactions that happened between the user and hiscommunity on the campaign page/account. In an embodiment, eachinteraction count is given a weight that reflects how well the socialmedia campaign has been received by the community (other users). Forexample: on Facebook, a “comment” is given more weight than a “like”. Inthis case, pressing “like” is an indication that the users saw themessage or the post or the article etc. on the other hand, if users makethe effort to write a comment on the campaign page it means that themessage of the campaign was thoroughly received by the users, or thatthe user is interested about the subject being advertised/posted.

It is to be noted that, in the present context, the activity data of themember includes all activities performed by the member and theirconnections on the member's profile page. By contrast, interaction datarepresents audience feedback e.g. actions that reflect feedback of otherusers on what the members have posted on their profile page and theresponse to the feedback. For instance, if the member writes an articleand posts this article on their page. The article is considered anactivity data, but not an interaction data. However, if one of themember of the audience presses “like” or “dislike” or writes a commenton the article, this would classify as interaction data.

The system 200 may determine an individual engagement score for thesocial campaign based on the number of interactions and the weightassociated with each interaction. The individual engagement scorerepresents a degree of engagement/use of the social campaign on aspecific social media network.

In an embodiment, the system 200 may determine an effort score for eachuser with respect to each social network. The effort score is anestimated amount of money spent in developing the social media campaign.For instance, the system may estimate the amount of money by estimatingthe average time spent in using, developing, updating etc. the socialmedia campaign. The system may take into consideration the frequency ofvisiting the account (logging in), and the volume of contribution anduse of the social media campaign as reflected by

1). sharing links, articles, music, videos, etc.,

2). viewing and liking other people's links and comments,

3). posting new materials,

4). commenting on other people's content etc.

5). Any other actions reflecting engagement, depending on the socialnetwork specificities.

The system may then use the effort score to determine an efficiencyscore for the user by applying the user engagement score for a certainnetwork against the effort score.

The system may also determine an average efficiency score for all usersin the same industry/network. In an embodiment, once the individualefficiency score is determined, it is compared with the averageefficiency score of all users in the same industry/network using abenchmark module 212 and presented to the user for viewing. Thiscomparison may notify the user may as to how advanced and efficient theyare with respect to other users in their industry and/or network.

Once the individual final efficiency score for each social media network202 is determined, a global efficiency score (hereinafter “userefficiency score”) is calculated which reflects the user's efficiencyscore on all social networks. In one embodiment, a coefficient may beassigned to each social network based on the popularity and the numberof members of the social network. The system 200 may calculate the “userefficiency score” in accordance with equation 1 below:

Global Score=a*sc1+b*sc2+c*sc3+d*sc4  (1)

Where:

-   -   a, b, c, and d are the different coefficients associated with        the different social networks 202;    -   a+b+c+d=1; and    -   sc1 to sc4 are the individual efficiency scores of the user with        the different social media networks.

In an embodiment, the system 200 may include a knowledge base 214 forrecommending one or more actions to the user to improve their efficiencyscore by improving their visibility to other users. The knowledge base214 may be connected to the database 206 to have access to the user'sstatistical/activity data from each social network 202. The knowledgebase may be adapted to obtain the ranking rules of each social networkto analyze the statistical data of the user in view of the ranking rulesand criterion of each social network 202 to determine the steps thatneed to be taken to improve the individual efficiency scores of the userwith that specific network. The analyzing may include mapping theranking rules to the activity data (e.g. examining the activity data inlight of each rule). In an embodiment, the ranking rules may be examinedto determine the most relevant ones. A weight may be assigned to eachrule depending on the general relevancy of the rule, or the relevancy ofthe rule with respect to a specific campaign profile page. The rules mayalso be re-ordered so that the activity data is analyzed in view of themost relevant rule first to generate recommendations that, when adopted,improve the ranking and/or visibility of the campaign the most.

For example, some social networks penalize the users when they useautomated programs for posting contents. Therefore, if the knowledgebase 214 detects that some content is being posted automatically (e.g.if multiple postings have occurred at the same time), it may recommendto the user posting contents in their profile manually. In anotherexample, the knowledge base 214 may recommend to post less often if auser has a low amount of comments/likes but a high amount of user posts.

In one example of implementation, the recommendations may be triggeredin response to detecting that the efficiency score is lower than athreshold. The threshold may be predetermined, and may also be dependenton the industry score.

In an embodiment, the system 200 updates the activity data in thedatabase 206, and/or the ranking rules in the knowledge base 214 on aregular basis e.g. daily and/or every time a user 208 makes a request,to provide the user 208 with real time (instantaneously) or nearly realtime results and recommendations.

For instance, the industry's efficiency score may change depending onthe recent activities of other users and the number of users that joinor leave the different social networks. Furthermore, the knowledgebase's recommendations 214 may also change depending on the latestactivities performed by the user and the new rules used by the differentsocial media networks for ranking users. For example, if the knowledgebase 214 in the last recommendations suggested that the user completestheir profile and the user does before running the last search, theknowledge base 214 would not repeat the same recommendation again. Onthe other hand, if for example the knowledge base suggested that theuser posts the content manually and the ranking rules have changed tostop penalizing users for posting using automated programs, theknowledge base 214 would cease to include the recommendation of postingmanually.

As discussed above, the system 200 may be implemented as a server to beaccessed remotely by a plurality of clients 208. In an embodiment,measuring and improving the efficiency of social media campaigns isprovided as a real time online service (SaaS) in a cloud computingenvironment, whereby the system 200 remotely connects to both the user208 and the different social media networks 202 over a communicationsnetwork 204. An Example of a suitable operating environment forpracticing the embodiments is described below.
